Taking Spencer to the Provo MTC

Today we took Spencer to the MTC to start his mission. I have dreaded this day since he was born, I know I shouldnt feel that way but I am just being honest!! Spencer on the other hand was SO, SO EXCITED, HE COULDNT WAIT TO GET HIS NAME BADGE :)!!

WOW, I cant write this right now cause I am going to start crying, so I will have to come back and write it at a later time, sorry!!!!!

Inspirational Quotes from the emails of...Elder McGhie :)!!

"Welcome to the life of ajunior,brand new, gringocompanion!I feel likethe penguins on Madagascar sometimes,"Just smile and wave boys, just smile andwave"haha!"***********************************"...While we were waiting and waiting in the rain, I bought achocolate ice cream and sat and ate it cause I was depressed because of my stupidity, haha(helocked them out of their apt). I also bought some cookies (chocolate)...after I ate them I definitely felt better, just like in Harry Potter, chocolate can solve any problem,EVEN DEMENTORS !"*************************************So here we are in the middle of Peru, on our pday, hiking up this mountain and it was awesome! So the question is, "When you are a missionary, in the middle of Peru, hiking a giant mountain, what do you do while climbing the mountain?" Of course me and one of the other gringos in my district sang, Miley Cyrus, "ITS THE CLIMB"! Haha, I cant lie, it was so perfect and yes, sadly, I knew all the words along with the other gringos. Elder Porter from Arizona was singing with me.It was just so funny to think, "What the heck, Im in the middle of Peru hiking a mountain, now, what should I do?""I should definitely sing some Miley Cyrus right now!!" Haha!" So that was pretty awesome, we did sing it pretty well, with giant leaps and dance moves to go along with the song! Haha!******************************************************************So when they told us last week we were going to eat at The Area President House (his name is Pres. Pino) today,I laughed and said, funny joke, but they were dead serious!So today(Sunday)after Sacrament meeting Pres. Pino came down from the stand,shook my hand and pretty much starred straight into my soul and asked me…”So are you going to eat lunch at my house today?” I barely managed to get out any words and said,“umm, I think so?”Haha And,I said it with about the courage of Nevil Longbottombefore he becomes a man in the7th Harry Potter!Haha!!
